PNGA Junior Boys Championship

Joshua Gliege of Eagle, Idaho completed his march through the bracket with an 8 and 7 decision in the final match over Roy Kang of North Vancouver, B.C. to win the 61st Pacific Northwest Junior Boys’ Amateur, which was held at Wildhorse Resort in Pendleton.

The championship was conducted by the Pacific Northwest Golf Association (PNGA).

After 12 holes into the scheduled 36-hole match, Gliege found himself 1-down to Kang, but he then took complete control of the match by winning nine of the next 14 holes, closing out the match with a birdie on the par-5 29th hole.

Gliege, the No. 2 seed, had impressive victories in the early matches of the championship, winning three matches leading up to the final match by margins of 7 and 5, 6 and 5, and 6 and 4.
